Weaning strategies affect larval performance in yellowfin seabream (Acanthopagrus latus)
(Elsevier, 2021-03-24)
A 30-day study was carried out to determine the influence of different weaning strategies (WS) on growth and survival rates, stress resistance, digestive enzyme activities and whole body fatty acid ...
Molecular and Functional Characterization of Elovl4 Genes in Sparus aurata and Solea senegalensis Pointing to a Critical Role in Very Long-Chain (>C24) Fatty Acid Synthesis during Early Neural Development of Fish
(MDPI, 2020-05-15)
Very long-chain fatty acids (VLC-FA) play critical roles in neural tissues during the early development of vertebrates. However, studies on VLC-FA in fish are scarce. The biosynthesis of VLC-FA is ...
Yolk Absorption Rate and Mouth Development in Larvae of Dormitator latifrons (Perciformes: Eleotridae)
(MDPI, 2022-12-07)
Fish larvae suffer high starvation mortality during the transition from yolk absorption to exogenous feeding, and the size of the developing buccal structures limits the food they can consume. Determining ...
Sperm contamination by urine in Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis) and the use of extender solutions for short-term chilled storage
(Elsevier, 2019-11-01)
Methods are needed to manage the sperm of Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis), which will enable the industry to use artificial fertilisation to reproduce hatchery raised sole and implement breeding ...
Invasion genetics of the mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus): recent anthropogenic introduction in Iberia
(PeerJ, 2019-02-08)
Human activities such as trade and transport have increased considerably in the last decades, greatly facilitating the introduction and spread of non-native species at a global level. In the Iberian ...
Taurine supplementation in high-soy diets affects fillet quality of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax)
(Elsevier, 2019-11-01)
This study evaluated the effects of taurine supplementation to diets containing a high dietary inclusion of soybean meal and soy protein concentrate on growth performance and fillet quality of juvenile ...
Brewery by-products (yeast and spent grain) as protein sources in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) feeds
(Elsevier, 2021-05-17)
Two trials were conducted to test the effect of partial replacement of fishmeal by two brewery industry by-products, yeast and spent grain, included in isoproteic and isolipidic diets for gilthead sea ...
Egg quality variability in common dentex (Dentex dentex, L.): Comparison of different quality indexes
(Elsevier, 2018-11-10)
The egg quality of two common dentex captive broodstocks were monitored for two consecutive years during their natural spawning season. Volume of spawned eggs, volume of buoyant eggs, fertilization rate, ...
Modulation of gut microbiota and intestinal immune response in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) by dietary bile salt supplementation
(Frontiers, 2023-04-24)
Given their role in lipid digestion, feed supplementation with bile salts could be an economic and sustainable solution to alterations in adiposity and intestinal inflammation generated by some strategies ...
The inclusion of the microalga Scenedesmus sp. in diets for rainbow trout, Onchorhynchus mykiss, juveniles
(MDPI, 2020-09-15)
A nutritional study was conducted to evaluate the inclusion of the green microalga Scenedesmus sp. at 5% (SCE-5) as an alternative fishmeal ingredient. This microalga was tested with four replicates ...
